It's said the Peter, Paul & Mary version is the best. Sorry Mr Burrows, we believe Stevie's R&B rendition was better than Dylan's but that's our opinion only, we're biased toward R&B. Unfortunately, this song is not one of his songs that's best suited to his voice-- the song requires a gentler, less nasal voice. Think Willie Nelson.

(someone has sold their soul, since they don't have dignity worth selling, for the troll)

The snipping Dumlumbus buffoons speak of profound ignorance and they're right, for they speak with profound ignorance and seem to know all about profound ignorance from personal experience...
and they seem to love bragging about it with every inane trolling post.

"With all fairness, greatness, with no gratitude.
And simply rhymes with attitude
Now do promotion and TV, and ya still can't see. We
Down the hill cascade
And keep away the masquerade,
Dreamed of ringing voices,
And you promised me poems."
~~Tricky "Poems"

Definitely in the minority.

https://happymag.tv/stevie-wonder-songs-in-the-key-of-life-why-it-mattered/

********************** You can dance with mum to Isn’t She Lovely. You can admire the jazz homage in Sir Duke. You can analyse the imagery in Village Ghetto Land. You cannot deny the power, resonance and timelessness of Stevie Wonder’s music. Stevie Wonder is the exuberant genius who revolutionised music, and we are not to underestimate the potency of his imagination.

In an extraordinary career, Songs in the Key of Life stands out. He visualised an untried musical path — a radical electrification of modern soul, that took him far from the assembly line pop of his ‘Little Stevie’ era during the early days of Motown. The record is ambitious but includes some of the best performances, arrangements, lyricism and production of Wonder’s career. ******************************
